Petey's color progress

[Water]

A progression of Petey over the past two weeks :)

WOW! he's so much more intensely colored now!

It's amazing how betta's get so much prettier just by being out of crappy conditions for a short while!

I love how he's almost like a cellophane butterfly - if thats the right way to word it?!

[Water]

I know :) haha. I loved that his fins were translucent but watching him change makes me happy. And you could word him as metallic/cellophane? I'm still trying to figure him out myself! I'll have to wait and see what he looks like when he's done.

Yeah he almos looks like a completely different fish! So much brighter now.

He looks almost metallic in those pictures, if he is I'd call him a copper cellophane butterfly, (not sure if that's technical, but that's his coloring)
And if he doesn't have metallic then he'd be a chocolate cello. Butterfly.

I can't wait to see if he changes some more

I know! These betta fish amaze me :) He only looks metallic when the light hits him and its like a baby blue color. The one picture where he looks silver i was below him so the light hitting him was real strong. Other than that, he's got a mix of purples, pinks and blues on him :) and he is a marble so he'll most definitely continue changing! What's a chocolate cello? Lol.

[aemaki09]

Chocolate coloring with clear fins. He looks mostly brown that's why I thought that

[Water]

Oooh, the only part that's brown is that spot on his head :p
